Hardware Requirements

[#1]

I have gone through the system Requirement PDF for QlikSense ,but I  need to understand that if i want to analyze DataSets which has around 5 Millions Data Points , what should be my Minimum RAM and Processor Requirements to satisfy analyzing this Dataset Seamlessly,

Rahul,

The short answer: it depends...

5 Millions rows with 2 columns or with 100 columns. String values or boolean...

How many concurrent users/sessions are you planning to have on your system....

I would say that 32 GB of RAM should cover basic needs (~50 users, with few active applications running).

64 GB preferable.

CPU parameters are not that critical nowadays... It's hard to find a server with less than 3 GHz CPU speed.

Vladimir

So vlad.komarov‌ isn't there a RAM calclulator for QlikSense , like the one QlikView has.?

Rahul,

The engine in Sense is pretty much the same, so you can use the QV RAM calculator for your estimates.

But I never found it useful for several reasons:

1. Your applications'/users' pool is dynamic thing, so it is very hard to estimate how your system will be used ~ 2 years from now.

2. I am usually allocating server resources based on available budget (the maximum budget allows)

3. It's simpler and cheaper to add more RAM resources later, if needed.
